2023 Impact Report
Torchgrab Africa
Thank You!
Thank you for your unwavering support in 2023. Your time, gifts, and dedication to our ministry make it possible for the vulnerable children and communities we serve in the slums of Nairobi, Kenya to receive a transforming Christ-centered education at Petra School on the Rock.
The Whole Child Approach
We believe that the best solutions to breaking cycles of poverty begin with a focus on kids. Our model is based on the "Whole Child" approach, which aims to ensure that every child in the communities we work with is healthy, safe, engaged, supported, and challenged. This model prioritizes the holistic development of community, church, and school resources that have the power to transform children's lives. By addressing the needs of children from multiple angles, we hope to create lasting change and break the cycle of poverty.
Ethics & Reporting
As a Christ-centered ministry and a 501(c)3 nonprofit, we are dedicated to being responsible stewards of the resources you have entrusted to us. With the blessings of God and your continued support, we remain committed to the mission of liberating as many children as possible from poverty in Jesus' name. In 2022, we took a significant step towards transparency by introducing our Annual Impact Report, shedding light on the operations and remarkable achievements of Torchgrab Africa in Kenya.

“Looking back on 2023 with the knowledge of now, I am struck by how much Torchgrab Africa achieved in so little time.
In the face of many challenges, marked by Kenya’s struggling economy, rising inflation, and the growing Hunger Crisis in Eastern Africa, Torchgrab Africa has continued to grow both in scale and impact: We expanded our educational efforts to support over 30% more children this year, while founding three new programs aimed at reducing hunger and promoting education.
Together, we are aligned by a common vision: to give vulnerable children a hope and future through education and a real relationship with their Savior Jesus Christ. It’s incredible to witness the tangible Glory of God made evident through the collaborative efforts and hearts of our supporters and partners, as we work together to bring the gospel to the least of these.
Thank you for your solidarity and support.”
